Had a quick shoot with Andrea using both the Fujifilm X100VI and a Hasselblad X2D 100C. Lovely cameras, lovely model, lovely results I'd say. A well-spent Sunday morning :)

I had a lovely photoshoot recently and wrote about it on my blog. I'm really happy with the pictures as they came out exactly like I had planned in my mind. Have a look 😊

I don’t often shoot using flash or any other kind of artificial light. I try to capture moments and use the available light to make sure the scene is undisturbed by me. Simply speaking, I don’t consider myself a studio photographer. But that does not mean I don’t want to explore all kinds of p...

The best lens for wedding photographers? The focal range and the bright aperture might suggest so!

Many lenses claim the title universal or try to be a one-for-all kind of focal range but very few can actually be used for a majority of scenarios thrown your way. The new Tamron 35-150mm f/2-2.8 might just be one of those lenses. But does it pull its weight? And would you carry its weight? We’ve ...

My Fujifilm X-T3 Re-Review is available to read on Fstoppers. The best bang for your buck camera at the moment!

When it comes to used cameras there are many powerful contenders for the top spot in terms of the best bang for your buck. Well, almost no cameras have been losing value as fast as Fujifilm’s X-Ts with each new release. For a budgeting photographer, this can only mean you get the good stuff cheap....

My Nikon Z f review has just come out on Fstoppers. Quite possibly the most beautiful modern camera I've ever used!

Many have been waiting for it ever since the release of the Z fc. Well, it is finally here and it is not just gorgeous, but surprisingly well-built using high-quality materials and impressive tech. The Nikon Z f is partially a Z6 II, a Z8, and a beautiful FM2 and yet it’s its own unique thing. A B...

My latest Fstoppers article has just been published. Hopefully, it'll be useful to some. The editor-in-chief called it "the best article I've ever read on the site." 🥰

I get questions like these daily, mostly from inexperienced or new photojournalists who want to get into documentary photography. I often repeat the same answers, so I figured it might be useful to put it all into a single article. So, here are the bare basics of high-risk documentary photography. N...

My favourite camera so far! Read my latest Fstoppers review of the Fujifilm X-T5:

The Fujifilm X-T5 has been out for some time. It was announced back in November 2022, but I’ve been using it since a few weeks before that so you could say I’ve had the camera for a long enough time to be able to tell you my opinion on it. Is it the right camera for you? What are its pros and co...

My new review of the Fujifilm X70 has just been published on Fstoppers. Have a look at this tiny lil clicker that I'd love for Fujifilm to update.

Many photographers know the famous Ricoh GR lineup. Unsurprisingly, it is a widely loved and appreciated series of APS-C fixed-lens compact cameras. But it is not alone in this space. Many Fujifilm users know the X70 well, but is it still a good choice today, nearly seven years after its release? Do...

My review of the unattainable X100V has just been published on Fstoppers. Go and have a look at the camera that I believe to be the essence of photography.

The X100V has been on the wishlist of many. So many in fact, the waiting period to even get their hands on one can exceed six months. But why? What is the hype all about? What makes the camera so unique? Is it truly as good as everyone says? Is it worth the wait? Where to Even Begin? The Fujifilm X1...

A Leica Q3 review I wrote for Fstoppers. A brilliant little camera.

Many have waited for it patiently, and even more can only dream of affording it, but there is one thing you simply cannot deny: the Leica Q3 is a damn good camera. Is it worth the price? To many Leica lovers, undoubtedly. To you? Well, let’s see what it offers first. Unfazed by the Modern World As...

You see them all over the internet, on your socials, exhibiting in galleries, and lining up clients by the dozens. Successful photographers seem to have it all figured out, and that makes you feel like you’re doing everything wrong. Do not worry. You’re not alone in this. Comparison Is the Thief...
